~> uname -a FreeBSD compaq.yuetime 8.2-PRERELEASE FreeBSD 8.2-PRERELEASE #8:

Sometimes, pcm prints the following message to the console & dmesg.
pcm0: chn_write(): pcm0:virtual:dsp0.vp0: play interrupt timeout, channel
dead

What's wrong? I haven't seen this in 8.1-RELEASE or other version before.
One post said that such message comes with noise, but I'm not sure. I uses
mplayer, sometimes quodlibet (gstreamer backend).
